HISTORIC ROUTE 66

Gearhead Curios

Galena, KS | Cherokee County

This 1939 Texaco station has been restored by owner Aaron Perry into a must see stop. Here you'll find Route 66 curios, artwork for the gearhead, gifts, a place to gather and share stories. On the corner of the building find a blue 1951 Hudson Hornet resembling Doc Hudson from the animated movie, Cars. Look for the American flag created from license plates on the south exterior of the building. Before you go, be sure and check out the most photographed restroom on Route 66.
